Erie Hack will put $100,000 and dozens of engineers, coders, developers and other creative minds from across the region to work for our most precious natural resource: Lake Erie. The Erie Hack Challenge Statements have been finalized and will be announced this evening. These statements were distilled from ideation sessions held in each participating city and represent the core challenges facing Lake Erie. Hackers—this is your cue to get ready!

The Challenge Kickoff will also provide details on the competition and acceleration process. If you don’t have a team and are interested in joining one, we’ll help you make connections.
